Shiv Sena MP Milind Deora , in his maiden Rajya Sabha speech, said that life has come to a full circle. Former Congress leader who ended his family's 55-year association with the party in January, recalled how Shiv Sena founder Bal Thackeray supported his father Murli Deora to become the mayor of Mumbai 47 years ago. He mentioned how now after 47 years, the same party has sent him to Rajya Sabha at the age of 47 years.
"In many ways, life has come a full circle because in 1977, 47 years ago, late Bala Saheb Thackeray supported my late father become the mayor of Mumbai. And today, 47 years later, at the age of 47, the president of Shiv Sena and Chief Minister of Maharashtra, Eknath Shinde, has enabled me to represent Mumbai and Maharashtra in Rajya Sabha," he said. Deora also highlighted the "four Cs" which, according to him, were of concern for the country.
The four factors outlined by him included: "China, City and Commuting and Climate Change." Read full text of Milind Deora's maiden speech in Rajya Sabha here: Thank you very much, sir.
